Fit in some spring networking at our May 7 Coffee Connection at Sellers Subaru in Macomb. We will also have a brief overview from the Detroit Metro Convention & Visitors Bureau on important events coming to metro Detroit this summer.

Wendy Achtaz did an outstanding job of kicking off the Chamber's Secrets of My Success series on Friday. Wendy was candid and engaging as she shared lessons learned as a Macomb County entrepreneur. Thank you to First State Bank for sponsoring this series. Stay tuned for information on our next speaker.
